<p>Thanks everyone for your suggestions regarding Lilly and her
possible arthritis in her back. I will follow up with my vet. She
is familiar with bassets as she has had them herself. I like her
so much that I followed her to another practice further away when
she moved. Amazingly she didn't charge me a visit fee when I had
the xrays taken and the urine tested. What a nice vet. <br>
</p>
<p>I will also look into supplements.</p>
<p>Alas, Lilly still has a bladder infection after 2 weeks of
antibiotics. It's better then it was, but we are treating it for
another 2 weeks.<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks again!</p>

<div>Hi all, Dale here,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Oh I learned this the hard way! BEWARE the basset xray ......
bassets look like cartoon characters on xray with space between
joints where other breeds don't have them. I remember when I
first had Snoopy xrayed at age 5 .... they told me the bridge of
his hips was about to collapse and that and a host of other
problems would mean the dog wouldn't last the year. Well,
Snoopy could fly at that point and did for a number of years
after. He's been down in the back, twice, but he's back up and
running and has been for a couple of years. Snoopy is going to
be 14 in June!!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Don't believe a word they say about your bassets xray unless</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1) They are comparing the xray to a different xray of the
SAME dog and are telling you things are changing</div>
<div>2) They are pointing to a facture/broken bone/blown
disc/lodged foreign object ...... ie something obvious</div>
<div>3) They are accustomed to reading a bassets xray</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Enjoy your girl. Certainly most bassets do eventually get
joint problems and a supplement is a good way to help their
joints. I use triple max.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best,</div>
<div>Dale</div>
